Abstract

The invention concerns a lancet system comprising a plurality of essentially needle-shaped lancets, a drive unit which has a drive element which is moved from a resting position into a lancing position in order to carry out a lancing process, a storage area to store the lancets, a withdrawal area to guide at least the tip of the lancet out of the system during the lancing process and a transport unit which can transport lancets from the storage area into the withdrawal area, wherein the drive element is arranged in such a manner that in the withdrawal area it can act on the lancet located there to carry out a lancing process and thus move the lancet from a resting position into a lancing position and wherein the system has a retraction device in the withdrawal area which can interact with the lancet located in the withdrawal area in order to move the lancet after completion of the lancing process from the lancing position into the resting position and it concerns a lancet magazine adapted to the system, a corresponding lancing device and a working process for the system.
